About

A rules-based, multi-sleeve strategy: push into 3x tech when uptrends are clear, and swiftly retreat to cash/bonds or inverse/volatility hedges when markets overheat or weaken, using moving averages, RSI, and drawdown triggers.
NutHow it works
It first reads market tone: is SPY above/below its 50/200-day trend lines and are losses big (drawdown = drop from a recent peak)? If risk-on, it rides 3x tech funds (TQQQ=3x Nasdaq-100; SOXL=3x semis; TECL/UPRO=3x tech/S&P). If momentum looks “too hot” (RSI, a 0–100 speed gauge) or after big spikes/drops, it flips to hedges (SQQQ/SOXS=3x inverse; UVXY=volatility) or parks in short-term bonds/cash (BSV/BIL). A bonds-vs-QQQ test also gates when to go aggressive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~31.68% vs SPY ~19.35%. Rules-based multi-sleeve system uses 3x tech in uptrends and hedges in risk-off. Higher upside, but larger drawdowns; suited for patient, long-horizon investors.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
